TRICK OR TREAT ON HALLOWEEN by Ethel When I was just a little girl we loved Halloween We'd dress all up in our costumes the cutest you'd ever seen Goblins and witches, Supermen and Angels sometimes a cute litlle clown If around you would look you might even see a little Charlie Brown We would go to all the houses in the neighborhood Oh, the nice treats they would fix for us were so good Candy apples, popcorn balls, just all kinds of good treats Our Mothers would check out our bags but only to limit our sweets We all had a lot of innocent fun, to be afraid of our treats not ever That was a while back, I'm talking about, then some bad folks tried to be clever Now even if the kids get to go trick or treat in this sad day Their parents have to check the treats real good, some even use an x-ray You see, the cruel bad folks who thought they were so clever Into the treats put razor blades, pills, just whatever When this happens I just want to cry for it is so very, very sad That even trick or treat on Halloween had to turn out to be often bad [This message has been edited by garysgirl (10-16-2002 09:50 AM).] |

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Ethel, this is so very heartbreaking, sweet friend, I can't understand how some people can be so cruel to even children on what is supposed to be a day of innocent and friendly spooks, not evil suprises! (sad sigh) You speak of this so well, sweet friend, I miss trick-or-treating on Halloween so much and wish I could still do it but my parents won't let me, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
